I decided to visit a stonehenge type feature in the landscape, this is called "The Barbury circle" made from wood and stone to mimic albeit on a smaller scale Stonehenge. Worth a visit, the circle is situated amongst the rolling landscape just south of Barbury hill fort.
My route takes me from my home on the North East side of Swindon, through the town and down across the M4 then up what has to be one of the toughest MTB climbs in the area, Jacobs Ladder.
In wet conditions this route is impossible for all but the strongest riders on suitable bikes and tyres, not an easy climb and I ended up pushing the bike :)
